Elkay EMABFTLDDSC Bi-level Mechanical Water Cooler

Product Description

The ELKAY EMABFTLDDSC is a wall-mounted, non-refrigerated bi-level drinking water cooler designed for indoor commercial and institutional installations. It operates entirely without electrical power, relying on mechanical pushbar activation for water flow at both front and side access points. The unit ships at 46 pounds and features full stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in high-traffic environments. Two independent drinking stations serve users at different heights, and the integrated Flexi-Guard Safety Bubbler provides a flexible, antimicrobial mouth guard to reduce injury risk and limit cross-contamination. All wetted components are lead-free and comply with NSF 372 for lead content reduction.

This cooler is suited for schools, government buildings, offices, parks, and any public or semi-public indoor space where electrical service may be interrupted or unavailable. The non-refrigerated configuration delivers ambient-temperature water at both stations simultaneously. Dual-height mounting accommodates ADA-accessible layouts alongside standard-height use. The pushbar activation requires no grip strength, making it appropriate for environments serving a wide range of users including children and individuals with limited mobility. A plumber connects the unit to a standard cold-water supply line during installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements. Shut off the cold-water supply and depressurize the line before making any connections. Verify wall-blocking or structural backing is in place to support the unit weight before securing the mounting bracket. Confirm rough-in dimensions against the package dimensions - 20.5 inches length, 19.7 inches width, 35.6 inches height - prior to framing or blocking.
